A number of Liverpool supporters have been reacting negatively to James Pearce's update regarding Jadon Sancho and Kylian Mbappe.

Jurgen Klopp and his Reds players are currently enjoying a breather, following a relentless season.

In the end, Liverpool's campaign managed to finish in positive fashion, with a third-place finish sealed, despite so much going wrong throughout 2020/21.

Qualifying for next season's Champions League is big financially for the Reds, but it also means top players are more likely to be keen on a move.

Two players who have been linked with joining Liverpool are Sancho and Mbappe - two of the most exciting young players in European football currently.

Unfortunately, The Athletic's Pearce has poured cold water on either player heading to Anfield, saying it has been 'dismissed by senior club sources'.
